i love them! i am super into headbans right now. they help me not do my hair as much which i am also loving ( because i am lazy) i'm grumpy too. i'm doing body for life ( which is great!) but i can only eat treats and whatnot once a week. i miss my multi daily sweets. hang in there.

I thought at first that maybe this would be a good project for a sewing-wary girl like me. Then I saw the ruffle. And the bow. And all the other ADORABLE things you did, and I got scared. But they are very cute, and one day, I might try one. Because I am all about headbands that don't pinch behind the ear!

Love these. I have been looking for a good headband for my daughter ever since her brother cut off all of her hair. Also, I have that same cabbage patch in my stash. Looks like it's time to get it out and let my daughter play with it.

I cut 3 strips of the white fabric and ruffled them. Then I just manipulated them into a flower shape with a needle and thread. I really don't have specific instructions because it was kind of an accident.

I was going to do three ruffles on that headband but when I saw them all jumbled together on the table, they looked like a flower.

I'm a newbie to sewing and I wanted to try this, so I ended up doing 2" strip instead and it worked better, giving me a little leeway for my slips since I am still learning how to sew straight with a machine. Once I get it posted up, I'll let you know. :)

Love this headband--so crafty!Would love for you to link up to my Headband Link party over at Little Miss Momma! Here's the link:http://littlemissmomma.blogspot.com/2010/09/headband-week-link-party-and-surprise.html

really adorable headbands! so wish i still had little girlies to make them for!! by the way, i know what ya mean about the sugar! {recently diagnosed diabetic} the first two weeks of cutting out {or back} the sugar, is the hardest. after that, you'll feel so good.. sugar will be a distant memory!! :) a good tip, get some sugarless gum, for when the cravings get to ya.. it gives ya just enough of a sugar 'taste', it cuts the craving. good luck! {new follower}many blessings,-tracie

I love this!I'm launching my first linky party next tuesday. It's for projects that cost less than $10 and take less than 20-30 minutes. Would you consider linking up with me on my first linky party endeavor? Thanks!http://sweetfloweret.blogspot.comTina

Found this on pinterest thanks so much for the tute, these are great and the instructions are so detailed. I will definitely give these a go as I know my daughter would love to help design her own headband and the fabric or elastic ones just don't stay on our heads properly.

Thank you for this - I was trying to work out how to make a fabric cover for a headband and this was by far the most useful tutorial I found.
